Good Evening Girls,

It was FUN to get together last evening!!! : ) I always enjoy Show 'n Tell, & keeping up with everyone's lives, & the latest news. Thanks for sharing. Let's see if I can recap...

Jean - the disappearing 9 patch block is WAY cool!!! A simple block with SEW many variations. Quick & clever. Imagine adding sashing, or a flying geese border to add even more impact without a big time commitment. Nice!

Cath - look @ you & ALL that thread!!! ; ) Thanks for sharing. Your T-shirt quilt is GREAT! I REALLY like that aqua fabric with the orange. Thanks for the magazine. Jingle sends his thanks too! If you have any questions about the continuous bias binding directions, Cathy, just give a holler. We're not leaving 'til Saturday morning.

Lois - your pictures are SUPER!!! Van is getting big, & Ainsley (is that spelled correctly?!) is a real CUTIE!!! : ) Thanks for sharing, Grandma!!! Thanks also for letting us take a look @ your fat quarter book. And hey - are you coming to Lancaster with us?!?!?! It's FUN, c'mon!!!

Dolores - your Snoopy blanket is SEW cuddly & cute!!! You are doing a TERRIFIC job with your Gracie machine!!! : ) I feel proud of you. Your Roman Holiday jelly roll quilt is awesome! Isn't wonderful to piece the back & use up those odds & ends from your stash?! You SEW girl!!! If I SEE Joe Byrnes @ Disney I'm gonna die...!? ; )

Maureen - your quilt is BEAUTIFUL!!! I LOVE Matt's block & the fact that he covers with it every night! : ) BIG FAT KUDO'S on WINNING your court case!!! HOORAY!!! Thanks for the lip stick...

Mare - we are going to miss you in Lancaster, girl friend. : / Hope all goes as smoothly as possible with Bill's parents. Things happen for a reason...

Lori - thanks for hosting the QM's last night. We can sometimes get a bit rowdy, but I think we kept ourselves to a dull roar. Glad if John is feeling better. The "mod" T-shirt quilt you've been working on is turning out WAY hip!!! You've done a REALLY nice job with the fabrics, Lor. Your label on the back is SEW original & neat. : ) Thanks for the Jingle bags. He's embarrassed...

Leigh Anne - GLAD you're feeling better & didn't have to take antibiotics! Your baby bump is starting to show!!! : )

Thanks for looking @ my Fancy Pants, & the 2nd baby TATW quilt too.

Enjoy your evening & have a GOOD tomorrow!
Piecefully, Pam

Lori - thanks for having us. I LOVE the bag on the back of that quilt - what a very cool idea! Cath - thanks for the thread. Can't wait to see your glow-in-the-dark quilt! Lois...glad to hear you might be coming to Lancaster -and thanks for sharing the pictures of your two cuties! Dolores - so great to see you!!! Your quilts are awesome - the Snoopy is just precious! And a whole week at home with Joe Byrnes in Florida - WOW! That's a lot of sewing time. Consuelo/Hannah - the blue team quilt is awesome - I guess this makes Matt an honorary Quiltmama - like Sean! He is always welcome. Mare - keeping Bill and Joanna in my prayers. LA - you look good, kid! And the little bump is so cute. The countdown to Lancaster is on! Can you taste that steak? Pam - thanks for another complete and entertaining account of our gathering. I love our meetings and being able to read your blogs about them helps to keep those good feelings until we meet again. I really appreciate that. I hope you have a wonderful and magical trip! You certainly deserve the break and the relaxation. Enjoy every minute. You guys have to see Peggy's class quilt - it is awesome. Instead of all bikinis, she has created appliques of board shorts, a beach chair, an umbrella - very cool things and it looks adorable. We have to have her show it before she gives it away!!!! See y'all soon - have a nice weekend. Piece...
